Renovated 1920 Craftman - Historic DT 2 Blocks – Vilano Beach only 3Mi & St Aug Beach 5Mi

Welcome to the Lemon Street Retreat - Your Ultimate St. Augustine Getaway!

Indulge in the perfect holiday experience at 67 Lemon Street, a meticulously renovated 1920 Craftsman Bungalow located just steps away from the vibrant city centre of St. Augustine, Florida. With 3 bedrooms, each boasting its own bath, TV, and desk - ideal for the "work from home" lifestyle - this home promises a unique and unforgettable stay for up to 6 guests, with the option to accommodate 2 to 14 more in the optional Guesthouse in back.

Thoughtful Renovation: Step inside to discover a tasteful renovation that respects the timeless appeal of this classic 100-year-old Bungalow. From Carrara marble baths to Soapstone counters, heart of pine floors, and reclaimed Poplar cabinets, every detail echoes the essence of the past while offering the comfort of the present.

Unbeatable Location: Set in the heart of the historic city centre area, our home places you within a short half-mile stroll to the renowned St. George Street, where you'll find a plethora of tourist attractions, restaurants, and shops to explore. Whether you're interested in immersing yourself in local history or enjoying the music and lively atmosphere of the city after dark, it's all right at your doorstep. But that's not all! Just a few miles away, you have not one, but two stunning beaches waiting to be discovered. Vilano Beach, about 3 miles north, and St. Augustine Beach, just 5 miles south, offer a delightful contrast with plenty of parking and amazing restaurants at each. We provide beach towels, chairs, and boogie boards for your convenience. It's truly the Best of Both Worlds!

Comfortable Accommodation: The Greatroom exudes warmth with plenty of natural light, and a luxurious leather sofa with three reclining sections, complemented by a corner recliner chair for quiet reading or relaxation. With 4 TVs and plenty of board games and cards, there are endless entertainment options to ensure that everyone's preferences are catered to.

A Creative Kitchen: The heart of the home, our kitchen, showcases the imaginative use of reclaimed materials. Crafted by Linda's father over 50 years ago from antique Poplar beams salvaged from an old Elementary School in Tennessee and transported here, the cabinets exude nostalgia and history. The Soapstone counter island and open shelves further enhance the authentic ambiance.

Inviting Bedrooms: Each of the three bedrooms is designed to provide a haven of peace. The front bedroom features a King Headboard crafted from one of the original 100-year-old doors found in the home, a secret meditation/sun porch, and a large walk-in closet that can double as a nursery or office. Its bath boasts the original 100-year-old claw foot tub alongside a new Carrera marble rain shower. The middle King Bedroom offers a luxurious marble bath with a two-person shower and a new standalone Slipper Claw Foot Bath Tub. The third bedroom is furnished with a Queen sleigh bed, double closets, and a private entrance to the hall bath with marble shower. All 3 with desks for easy “Work From Home”.

Captivating Outdoor Spaces: Relax and unwind on the large screened front porch, complete with 6 teak rocking chairs and an additional 3rd dining area. The back delights with a private deck with Dining and romantic string lights, a versatile grill with both gas and charcoal options, a seconding dining space under the stars, and a charming rock garden. For larger groups, the gate can be opened to link the guesthouse in the back, providing even more space to enjoy.

Versatility and Additional Accommodation: One of the unique advantages of Lemon Retreat is the option to add a guesthouse accessed off the back alley, perfect for accommodating additional guests. Depending on your group size and preferences, you can add the whole Guesthouse which sleeps up to 14 or just the top floor Palm View sleeping 9 or the bottom floor Secret Garden sleeping 5. That's 20 Guests if you rent everything and room for 7 cars. But that's not all; I have two other beautiful homes just 2 streets away, each with its own distinct charm and versatility. To the south, 28 Riberia St sleeps 2 to 14 and to the east, 28 Saragossa St sleeps 002-8. Whether you're planning a family reunion, a wedding, or simply travelling with a larger group, our properties can cater to your needs. See bedroom/bath details with listing links below.
